Reflashing phone after an OTA update occurred... - Moto X Q&A

Trying to fix my daughter's phone, that I had previously flashed before using the XT1049_GHOST_REPW_5.1_LPA23.12-39-R-15_cid6_CFC.xml.zip file. Unfortunately it is now bricked and sitting at LPA23.12-39-R-19, and it fails the flash with the "security version downgraded" and "preflash validation failed" messages.
Is there (A) any way to get the full file for the updated R-19, or (B) get the 35MB OTA update and splice it into the R-15 update to make it work?

Not following you exactly... So. U flashed xt1049 ghost.... Then took an ota then bricked?

I have this exact problem. Basically we need the latest stock firmware from Republic Wireless which is from 2016, and has the build LPA23.12-39-R-19. Apparently once you upgrade, flashing doesn't work for older versions because the verification doesn't check out. If anyone could help out and post the SBF for this that would be greatly appreciated

Could not verify update

I have the D5803 running 5.0.2 (stock rooted) and it recently got an OTA but after the download it says "Could not verify update" is there a way to fix this?
OTA's does not work in many cases if you've modified your system partition, which you've done by rooting your phone. To upgrade to newer firmware version, either flash a stock firmware from a .zip file or use Flashtool.

You should give more information if you want someone to help you.
Was it the official ota you received on your phone that you tried to update from or a captured one?
Is your bootloader locked /unlocked?
Is your phone rooted?
Which firmware you are on?
What exactly happened during the update process?

Ok, did you get all further OTA including the stagefright patch? In your "About Phone" settings your firmware version should look something like XT1064 5.0.2 LXB22.99-24.12.
If you are on an earlier firmware you have to update your phone to the latest version, you can get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/official-stock-firmware-5-0-2-lxb22-46-t3019612 (Post #3 is for XT1064).
If you are on the latest firmware and OTA fails you can flash MM manually.
Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/6-0-xt1064-usa-ota-captured-t3327389/page2.
everything ok!thanks wolfcity
My phone updated OTA to 6.0; now it does not receive calls. I can make calls.
Resetting network settings did not help. I'm not able to restore the phone to factory; the option/button is grayed out.
I also cannot enable the USB debugging/developer mode...

Got it working. I was able to restore it via hardware/recovery.
followed the instructions and was able to upgrade to LXB22.99-24.4 however when i hit system update it says "your device is upto date". Is this because my device is rooted? How can i get 6.0 on my xt1064?

Where can I download EVA-L19C636B381? (Solved)

I did a rollback to EVA-L19C636B190 and after the rollback there was an update. I didn't download it yet and proceeded to allow the oem unlocking first and now it wont OTA update anymore. I'll do the manual update so if you have the files please share! if you have another method to make OTA work please tell me. Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: I somehow got the OTA when my dload failed. I found a update pack that for C636 and it failed to install but afterwards I could do the OTA coz it reset my whole system I think

How to return xt1806 to official software status?

I flashed the stock firmware from the guide thats available, but it's on the june security patch. When I check for an update, it says my device is up to date when that's not the case since the november patch was released. When I try to relock the bootloader in attempt to change the status to official instead of modified, it says this:
(bootloader) Security version downgrade
(bootloader) Image o failed validation
(bootloader) Invalid signed image
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 7.031s
for any file I attempt to flash after "fastboot oem lock"
Any ideas?

Don't relock your bootloader, i have experienced this issue on Moto G4 plus.
Relocking will not give you official status back.
According to my experience on G4 plus,
Official status becomes Modified, when you attempt to make modification in stock ROM and stock partitions (/boot, /system, /oem, etc.)
You will get 'Offficial' status back, but not right now.
To get it, you need to take OTA update, updating your device through OTA will make it 'official' again. (I am not sure, every update does not contain update for bootloader, so every update can work or not.)
Moto gives update every 3 month, wait for March/april.
At present, flash December's update. And wait for next update.. next will make it official back..
WARNING: for taking OTA purpose, don't downgrade your firmware, taking OTA from downgraded firmware results in Hard Brickk.

My phone hasn't given me the notification for an update, and whenever it checks for an update it says my phone is up to date so I can't do anything. It seems to not take ota's or receive them I guess. I can't even find the December update anywhere also.

I was using the pixel experience rom on 8.1 but I had to flash 7.1.1. Maybe I could flash a nougat rom and then try and relock it? Either way, the only update available to manually flash is the June update and not Decembers.

The description says it's for variant xt1805, so I'm afraid I can't use it :/ thank you though.

Can't install OTA updates after flashing stock image

My phone was previously rooted with magisk. I did a complete uninstall of magisk and then fully wiped my phone and installed the stock image. I've tried this multiple times now. After my phone gets set up, I try to download the OTA updates, and it will just say the update failed. Is there something else I am missing here? What is causing me to be unable to update?
Back when the 8.1 update was offered OTA I had a similar problem. For whatever reason OPW28.1 (OPW28.46-13) failed every time. I had to wait for the flashable firmware to become available and then flash it. After that I took all OTAs just fine up to the current version (Jun 2018). If you are willing to wipe your phone you can try to flash the latest firmware instead of trying OTAs.
Latest one is OPW28.3 (OPW28.46-21) 8.1.0 w/ June 2018 security patch:
Moto X4 Retail https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528054494
Moto X4 Amazon edition https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528062525
Moto X4 Android One https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528054493
Knowledge of ADB and fastboot is required.

Thanks, I was actually trying something similar when you posted.
I had previously been flashing OPWS27.57-25-6-10 which is 8.0, and it would fail to update every time.
I decided to try a different stock image, and I found an 8.1 image linked from this thread.
I flashed it, and tried ota update again. I initially got an error that the update failed, but I tried again, and it actually worked! So I am up to date on the July patch now!
